Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shaving system of the wet shave type, more particularly to a shaving system with an improved shaving aid composite.
  • the shaving aid composite generally comprises a water insoluble polymer matrix, typically polystyrene, and a water soluble shaving aid, typically polyethylene oxide, which leaches out of the composite during shaving to enhance shave comfort.
  • plasticizer such as propylene glycol
  • the present invention is directed to a shaving system of the wet shave type comprising a blade member (one or more) and a structure which supports or holds the blade member and which has an external skin engaging portion in proximity to the blade member.
  • the shaving system may be a disposable shaving cartridge adapted for coupling to and uncoupling from a razor handle or it may be a shaving head which is integral with a razor handle so that the complete razor is discarded as a unit when the blade or blades become dulled.
  • the blade edge cooperates with the skin engaging portion to define shaving geometry.
  • the skin engaging portion includes an improved shaving aid composite which comprises a matrix of a water-insoluble polymer, an effective amount of a skin lubricating water-soluble polymer dispersed within the matrix, and a compatibilizer material that improves the compatibility of the water-soluble polymer with the water-insoluble polymer so as to reduce the domain size of the water-soluble polymer within the matrix.
  • the improved shaving aid composite provides a greater and more sustained release of the water-soluble polymer during use while maintaining good mechanical and structural integrity.
  • the shaving unit 10 shown in Figs. 1 and 2 includes base or platform member 12 molded of high impact polystyrene that includes integral coupling groove structure 14 for attachment to a razor handle and guard structure 16 that defines a transversely extending forward skin engaging surface 18.
  • base or platform member 12 molded of high impact polystyrene that includes integral coupling groove structure 14 for attachment to a razor handle and guard structure 16 that defines a transversely extending forward skin engaging surface 18.
  • On the upper surface of platform 12 are disposed steel leading blade 20 having a sharpened edge 22, steel following blade 24 having sharpened edge 26, and aluminum spacer member 28 that maintains blades 20 and 24 in spaced relation.
  • Cap member 30 is molded of high impact polystyrene and has body portion 32 that defines skin engaging surface 34 that extends transversely between forwardly projecting end walls 36 and has a front edge 38 that is disposed rearwardly of blade edge 26.
  • Integral rivet portions 40 extend downwardly from transversely extending body portion 32 and pass through holes in blades 20 and 24, spacer 28, and platform 12 to secure cap 30, blades 20, 24 and spacer 28 on platform 12.
  • Adhesively affixed to skin engaging surface 34 is shaving aid composite 42.
  • the shaving unit 50 shown in Fig. 3 is of the type shown in Jacobson, U.S. 4,586,255, and includes body 52 with front portion 54 and rear portion 56. Resiliently secured in body 52 are guard member 58, leading blade unit 60 and trailing blade unit 62. A shaving aid composite in the form of elongated insert member 64 is frictionally locked in opening 66 of rear portion 56.
  • the shaving aid composite comprises a matrix of a water-insoluble polymer, an effective amount of a skin lubricating water-soluble polymer dispersed within the matrix, and a compatibilizer material that improves the compatibility of the water-soluble polymer with the water-insoluble polymer so as to reduce the domain size of the water-soluble polymer within the matrix and enhance release of the water-soluble polymer during use.
  • the shaving aid composite may also optionally include low molecular weight water-soluble release enhancing agents such as polyethylene glycol, water-swellable release enhancing agents such as cross-linked polyacrylics, colorants, antioxidants, preservatives, microbiocidal agents, beard softeners, astringents, depilatories, medicinal agents, conditioning agents, cooling agents, etc.
  • Suitable water-insoluble polymers which can be used for the matrix include polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, butadiene-styrene copolymer (e.g. medium and high impact polystyrene), polyacetal, acrylonitrite butadiene styrene copolymer, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and blends such as polypropylene/polystyrene blend.
  • the water-insoluble polymer comprises about 10 to 50%, more preferably about 15 to 40%, and most preferably about 20 to 30% by weight of the shaving aid composite.
  • the more preferred water-insoluble polymer is polystyrene, preferably a general purpose polystyrene such as Dow STYRON (Dow Chemical Company) or a high impact polystyrene, such as Mobil 4324 (Mobil Corporation).
  • the composite should contain a sufficient quantity of water-insoluble polymer to provide adequate mechanical strength, both during production and use.
  • Suitable skin lubricating water-soluble polymers include polyethylene oxide, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyacrylamide, hydroxypropyl cellulose, polyvinyl imidazoline, and polyhydroxyethylmethacrylate.
  • the water-soluble polymer comprises about 20 to 90%, more preferably about 40 to 80%, and most preferably about 60 to 80% by weight of the shaving aid composite.
  • the more preferred water-soluble polymers are the polyethylene oxides generally known as POLYOX (available from Union Carbide Corporation) or ALKOX (available from Meisei Chemical Works, Kyoto, Japan). These polyethylene oxides will preferably have molecular weights of about 100,000 to 6 million, most preferably about 300,000 to 5 million.
  • the most preferred polyethylene oxide comprises a blend of about 40 to 80% of polyethylene oxide having a molecular weight of about 5 million (e.g. POLYOX COAGULANT) and about 60 to 20% of polyethylene oxide having an average molecular weight of about 300,000 (e.g. POLYOX WSR-N-750).
  • the compatibilizer material may be any agent which has an affinity for both the water-insoluble polymer and the water-soluble polymer such that it improves the dispersibility of one polymer within the other and reduces the domain size of the water-soluble polymer within the matrix. It also changes the phase behavior and mechanical properties of the final polymer blend, making it softer while retaining structural integrity. Without being bound by any theory, it is believed that the compatibilizer material acts in polymer blends much in the same way as a surfactant does in oil and water systems.
  • the domain size of the polyethylene oxide phase is typically in the range of about 30-100 ⁇ m when a cross-section of the composite is viewed by SEM.
  • Shaving aid composites containing a compatibilizer material in accordance with the present invention generally have a water-soluble polymer domain size at least 50%, preferably at least 80%, smaller than that of similar composites without compatibilizer. Typically such composites will have a water-soluble polymer domain size under 10 ⁇ m, preferably about 1 ⁇ m or less.
  • the new shaving aid composites have quite different mechanical properties (generally softer) compared to conventional composites and more readily release the water-soluble polymer from the matrix during shaving.
  • the mechanical properties of the shaving aid composite can be adjusted by varying the levels of compatibilizer such that the entire composite (that is, both matrix and lubricant) gradually wears away during use, thus continuously exposing the user to a fresh composite surface providing excellent lubrication for numerous shaves.
  • the compatibilizer material will comprise about 0.5 to 15%, preferably about 1 to 10% and more preferably about 2 to 7% by weight of the shaving aid composite.
  • Suitable compatibilizer materials for use in accordance with the present invention include the following:
  • the shaving aid composite may be formed by extrusion, injection molding or in situ molding on a razor cap. Extrusion is the preferred method and should normally be performed in a controlled environment to minimize moisture absorption during fabrication.
  • the invention may be further illustrated by the following example in which all parts and percentages are by weight.
  • Shaving aid composites similar to insert member 64 shown in Fig. 3 were fabricated from the blends indicated below by extruding the blends through a Haake System 90 3/4 inch diameter extruder with a barrel pressure of about 1000-1800 psi and a temperature of about 180-185°C. and a die temperature of about 190°C. The extruded strip of composite is cooled and sliced to appropriate lengths for securing. into openings 66 of shaving units 50.
  • the polystyrene is Dow STYRON and the polyethylene oxide is a blend of 60% POLYOX COAGULANT (M.W. 5 million) and 40% POLYOX WSR-N-750 (M.W. 300,000).
